A Pinch uv Political Family Snuff
This J. Cook bizuess,Mr. Editor, is wot ails us'
It got inter the vartous soals uv Suthern Shiloks
al>out 1860, hoo praze the Lord that tha kin fede
ther nat>orß on 250 pur cent, provisions by takin
a iron-klad, kable-bound, kopper-lined and kase
hardened lean on ther soals, body, sakrcd ’ouer.
lau, mewls au’ religun, year arter year, outil cot
ting aint wuth nuthiu till tha git hold on it—aud
a nikkle is **s hard tu ketch as a fleigh ou the
equater ov your bak under a tyto-tittin weskit.
But, Mr. Editer, ding my buttons, ef we aint got
urn now—a plum do 1 tale-holt aud boath feet
skotched. au no mistake; ef we’ll jes only hold
on. But will we? I'm afeared not, fer ovawl the
essenshaly denied idyots in creashun, the farm
ers, as u klass, air the oudashusist. The mur
chiuts, banks and everything else may brake,
suspend, fall back ou Pacifik Ralerode bonds au
sick, but the farmer he must kum up and “anty”
his cottiug at jes wot tha will gin him, to settle
a dcrn iron-kladieun, wot is a draw in ov iutrust
iu a stream as mg as the Niagarora fowls. Wot
air them Northe.n fellers a dependiu ou tu git
’em out’u tliair trubbles ? The cotting crop ov
the South, dern ’em ! Tha air a goiu fer tu git
it at twelve an a haf cents and sell it fer 20.
Ding ef I doan’t suspen’ afore tha shall du it I’ll
jes pile up those air cottiug under the giu-’ous
on’ wont move er bale ontil them 250 pur cent
Samaritans air willin tu let me au’ Nancy Mft
riar Ann Jain hav p, livin’, tew. We worked hard
in fair wether an' fowl wether tu maik it, an’
ding my ole hat, ef tha shall hav it fer uuthin.
That air thing has been a gwiuo ou for more’n
5 year, an tkeese here middle men hav sot iu the
ahaide an’ got rich on us, but its plaid out. Pay
me wot my cottiug is wuth an’ be satisfied wi’
150 pur cent; I kaut git but 7 pur cent., or
coodn’t afore the war. Dern this oredic bistiess
anyhow; it’s made the farmers speculative an’
ther old ’omaus an’ darters stravigant The war
broko our hearts an’ credic’s broke our pocket
book*. Me an’ the old oman torks about these
things, Mr. Editur, sometimes, an’ for feer we
mout say somethin, what would bless a waitin
wurld an’ hit be lost, I'll jes sen’ you our last
conversation:
“Nancy Mariar Ann Jane,” (that’s mi wife)
8-s I tu her, ses I, “Nancy Mariar Ann Jain,
this hero dern J. Oook bisness, ets a giviu ov
finance fits. Cclar!”
“Lar sakes, dew tell!” sed Nancy Mariar Ann
Jain, “po-o-r critter ! M \ Oldbuck, (that’s me.
Mr. Editur, Nancy Mariar Ann Jain’s old man,
it aint now, ” ses she.
“Ding mi buttings, howsomover.ef it aint fly.
s shore as Len Baldwin’s got tu little yaller
sparrers, Nancy Mariar Ann Jain,” ses I.
“.Mr. Olehuck, wot makes urn treat the pooi
kritter so fer? Wot ’a yn call her name, fi-ance?
Dear, dear! now; chut, chut! lose y, lassey !
good grashus massey tor think that Jay Cooked
ti-anco! Jessee, shaw ! Wot a you say had
cooked fi-ance, Mr. Olebuck?” ses Nancy Ma
riar Ann Jain, ses she tu me, ses she.
“Dear me, old ’oman, how you du git things
discornbugled,” ses I tu her, ses I; “you bo wus
nor the Gorgy legislator fur bungfuzzlin things
so that Fario au’ all his host, wi’ Solon an’ Go
rnorrer thrown in, coodii onravel it,” Ties I tu
her, ses I -that is ter sa, to Nancy Mariar Ann
Jain, my old ’oman, Mr. Editur.
“Now, ole man, du shet upyer mouth rite tite
an* tell me the strait on it,” sob she.
“Well, old ’oman,” ses I, “it’s a long story.
It begun many year ago when the Yankees sold
tliair niggers tu the South an’ immediately sot
about a freein ov urn, bless ther pious soals.
This brought on the war fit by ginerals Lee an'
Grant out yonder in ‘ole forginy ashore,’ close
tu some sort ’o court-’ous, under a apple tree,
wot the sogers maid mtu pipes enuff to eurplv
the wurld. ”
“But, ole man,” sais Nancy Mariar Ann Jane,
“wot’s all that got to du with Mibs Fiance bein
cooked,” ses she.
“Wot Miss Fiance, Nancy Mariar Ann Jane?”
ses I.
“Ole man, you’re a fool,” ses she; “you haint
a pardkle more sense in your fis imabogamy nor
a gnse. I axed about Miss Fiance," ses she.
“Oh ! finance,” ses I. “Well, old ’oman, this
finance bisness is—is finance ; ding it, old ’oman,
don’t yusee?’’sesL * * Rite thar and then,
Mr. Editur. I lost my last lock ’o liar, and my
face, when Nancy Mar.’ar Ann Jane got thru wi’
it, looked like the United States flag wi’ the shirs
wiped out. An’ that’s all she sed untill arter
she had gethered tip a bundle ov old Standard*
mix and wi’ pieces o’ baggin, almanax, old cloth
gaitors an’ things, which she drapped in the tus
sle, an’ then arter she had pinned a whole lot o’
hors har on her hed she ses to me, ses she, “now
Oldbuck, out wi’ it, you mean old hipykrit, a
foolin’ around wi’ Miss Fiances while your dear
wife ar off a jinin ov the graingers,” ses she.
“A jinin’ ov wot, old ’oman?” ses L
“The graingers,” ses she.
“Oh ! the graingers," ses L
“Yes, the graingers,” ses she. “Wot ov it?”
“Nothin,” ses I. “I—"
“Shet yer mouth, Oldbuck," ses she, “the
Rraingers is a great an’ glourious insticution,
founded on the rock uv—uv—”
“Ham, old ’oman,” ses L
“Rock uv—rock uv—. Oldbuck, ef you don’t
len’ me a wurd, I'll pull your har, ” ses she.
“Pull away, old ’oman, but dmgef I’ll doit,”
I. I know’U the bar-pullin’ bisness war end
ed at las.
“Uv—uv—uv—,” kontinned the old ’oman.
“Your granny’s kat,” ses I, a glidin' under the
table to dodge the koffee-pot.
“No ekal rites f* screamed Nancy Mariar Ann
Jain. “Yon misirble villan you P
“Nancy Mariar Anu Jane,” ses I from under
the table, “for the lav of yer matermonial wous,
quit a kickin’ uv me.”
“Kum frum under the table, then, you ole
bawl-heded fule,” ses she.
“Nancy Mariar Ann Jain,” ses I, in a sepnl
kral tone, *TU du it, prowided you’ll xplain this
grainger bigness insuccink manner without men
tal reserwation or Hesitation, so help you Julius
Jahoeaphat,” ses L
“Kum out, then, ole man,” xklaimed Naucv
Mariar Ann Jain, in a solum voice, au’ I komed.
“Olebuck," ses she, a smilin on mo frum be
hind the muffins. “Olebuck, the farmers, for
ages an’ ages jmst alike the food an’ raiment an’
foot-ball ov the wurld, ar’ arousin tbarselves au’
a formiti tiv graingers,” ses she.
“Wot be they, old ’omau ? ’ ses I.
“Wot be wot ?’’ ses she.
“Graingers,” ses I.
“Wi’, (jraiwjers to be shore, you mortal idyot,”
ses she. “Wot elso cood they be?”
“Adzaokly, old ’oman, I hadn't thot *o that,’
ses I.
“Olebuck, said Nancy Mariar Ann Jain, a lift
in’ her izc tu heaviu an’ a haf a muffin tn her
month in a pious manner. “Olebuck, you ar a
ass,” ses she.
“Perzacklv, old o’man,” ses I. a bathin uv mi
wounded countenance. “Perzackly," ses I, “an’
you air a graingeress,” ses I
“Dezackly,” ses she; “I'm prowd tu sa I ar,”
and the old ’oman kame and put her arms aroun
mi nek in a hivin’ atiteud an’ kalled me her dar
lin’ aud pityed mi poor bleedin’ fisamabogamogy
ar kongratilated me on mi bein’ no temp's huu
for Injuns now.
Ses I, “Nancy Mariar Ann Jane, how much
do you want ?”
“Five dollars, dear Olebuck,” ses she; “that
ar the graiuger fee.”
“Old ’oman,” ses I, a waulin’ up mi ize, “I’m
ouwell; somthin wot I’ve ben a eatin’ on don’t
agree wi’ me. Sen fer the dokter immejiSly,” an
I fanteil in Naucy Mariar Ann Jane’s arms.
“Pomona Lucresha Sotony,” I heerd Nancy
Mariar Ann Jane sa tu the waitin’ gal, “hold
yoar marster while I hunts fer those pockit
book. ”
1 bad wiolent spaaums, Mr. Editur, ontil I re
membured I laid loned a f’rou awl ini change, au
tlieu I kum 2 in timo to e the old ’omau a sar
chin uv mi rnunny puss. “Naney Mariar Aun
Jane,” ses I, “wot air yu a doin?”
‘ ‘A gittin uv a V dollar hill," ses she.
“Old ’oman,” ses I, with terrible emtasis, “you
ken no inoar git a V doller willium in those uir
mutiny puss than yu kiu xkiver miter.il har on a
modurn yuug ladiz hed; yewl fine nuthin’ but

enuff to kiver 1500 akers of lan more or less .sit

you want paiiers for.”
“Olebuck,” sed Nancy Mariar Ann Jane wi’
teers in her woice; “Olebuck,” ses shv, “must
this glorias insticution perish fer want uv funds?
Must our fondest hopes bo konsined to the toon s
fer the Ink uv a fu dollers?”
“Old ’oman," ses I, a I’ m liu uv mi wunded
fuse, “this are a wurld uv trubble; man nevur
is, but awlways tube blest. N<-xt yeer’s cottiug
is alius wuth 20cts. per pound, while that on
han’is a sidlin’ fer t welve an a haf cents. We
air poor this year, hut we’ll bo rich the next
veer. We ar never blest!” I xklaimed a lookin’
at her in a significant manner an’ a feeliu uv mi
bald hed, “save when we’ve got nuthin to be
konsnrued about. The graingers,” kontinered
I, “will akkcmplisb sumthin benefishal ta man
kind, no dout. In the wisdum ova awl wise an’
marniful Provmcnse, events pass like firykomete
across the soshal firmament an disappear, but
sum grate purpus ar aitkomplished, not wot we
expected, perhaps, but a greater good, cood we
understand it. In the midst of the sosluil wrong
arisin from erroneus konklusions, as woll us
frum selfish principals, we pra the prince of
peas may kum an’ ruin over us. It, old ’omau,
he is a raiuiu in his incomprehensible way, guid
in' truth an’justice thru intricate ways tu ever
lastin' glory, an preparin fer evil a durne more
terrible than human ingenuity kau konseave.
The graingers,” kontinered I, “will live if he
wills it. The wronged tillers uv the soil lmv on
ly tu stan’m sollid palanx an’ not gin up those
tale holt above menshuned, an’ they’ll rule this
country, an I believe wi’ moar ekity an justis
than it ar now ruled.” Mr Editur, ajoo.
C. C. Fulton, editor of the Baltimore Ameri
can, states that during nearly five month’s so
journ in Prussia, Austria and Franco he never
encountered any one laboring under the effect of
intoxicating liquors, not even sufficiently ex
hilarated to be noisy. Iu the districts through
which lie traveled the people make free use of
the lighter wines, which arc regarded as promo
te ve of tenq>eruuce, us leer is in England.

The famous Dominican Father Burke, in the
course of a recant !e ture on this country at Cork,
Ireland, said: “America to-day groans and
laments by the voices of her statesmen, her
philosophers her writers and her press,over the
awful corruption of official life and the dishon
esty which they publicly proclaim is found in
every order of commercial, social and political
life. Nothing impressed one more than this—
the universal luoient.day after day,in all the pa
pers in America.”

A Good Story. Gen. Gordon says the fol
lowing story was told him by Gen. Grant, in
Washington :
When the three Commissioners met us at For
tress Monroe, Mr. Stephens came swaddled up
from top to toe in an enorm.jus overcoat.—Lii -
cion called me aside, as Mr. Stephens was dh
robing, and observed : “Grant, what dt*es that
preformance of Stephens remind you of ?” I an
swered him : “Mr. President, I do net know;
but what does it remind you of ?” With one of
his queer winks, Linc Jon said : “It reminds me
of the biggest shuck off the smallest ear I ever
saw iu all my life.
Uncertain France ! It was but yesterday
she shouted for a Republic, and che chances
of de Chambord and the white flag of the Bour
bons were slim indeed. To-day the Assembly
recall the Bourbon to France and the people are
bowing their neck for the kingly yoke. It was
but a dream of Liberty, and! he people are wak
ing up to resume their chains and servitude. A
: Monarchy in France and Republic in Npain.will
be impossible. Henry the Fifth will ascend the
throne of Napoleon soon to welcome Don Carlos
on the throne of Spain. But the people will be
uneasy still and though kingly candidates may
mount vacant thrones their reigns will grow
shorter and Republican interregnums more fre
quent,and we who watch from the newer world
will see a never ceasing effort of men aiming to
be tree with ever increasing chances of 6UCO66s
in the old.—Co?. Enquirer.

If you think of buying a Sewing Machine, it
will pay you to examine the records of those now
in use and profit by experience. The Wheeler
&, Wilson stands alone as the only Light Run
ning Machine, using the Rotary Hook, making
a Lock Stitch, alike on both sides of the fabric
sewed. All shuttle machines waste power in
drawing the shuttle hack after tlie stitch is form
ed, bringing double wear and strain upon both
machine and operatoi, hence while other ma
chines rapidly wear out, the Wheeler A Wilson
lasts a Lii m ime, and proves an economical in
vestment. I)o not believe all that is promised
by so-called “Cheap” machines, you should re
quire proof that years of use have tested their
value. Money once thrown away cannot bo re
covered.
H *ud for our circulars. Machines sold on
